I can’t defend my accomplishment in terms of something a sane, rational person would do.
It feels good to be in that place.īut when it comes down to brass tacks I could never argue that “ Final Fantasy as a solo mage” is a fun challenge that other gamers should feel comfortable undertaking. Beating Final Fantasy with a solo mage puts me in an elite club of power-gamers and makes me an authority on the subject. My own beloved Final Fantasy shares many of those nutrients, especially when you consider some of the insane challenge runs I’ve completed in that game. Beating Castlevania is an achievement in ways that beating Mega Man and Kirby are not. They see a game where brutal challenge and player abuse is a desirable thing, a sort of merit badge to be earned. I have debated fans of this game at great length over the years. But even by NES-era standards Castlevania is terrible. Back in those old dinosaur days, a game where you didn’t have to pump quarters into a machine to keep playing it felt downright friendly, I suppose. Maybe it was not terrible in the ’80s, when important lessons had not yet been learned about how to make non-terrible games. I am sorry if you like it, but you like a terrible game.
